The Lucknow-based franchise recently signed Kane Williamson as its strategic advisor. Williamson hasn't retired from IPL. He went unsold in the IPL 2025 mega-auction. LSG are now reportedly set to sign a former Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) coach. ESPNcricinfo has reported that Tom Moody will join LSG as their global director of cricket.
